Verse:

G
Throwing candy out to the crowd
C                 Dm
Dragging down the main
    G
The helpless little thing with the dirty mouth
      C                       Dm
Who's always got something to say
G
You're sitting around at home now 
C                           Dm
Waiting for your brother to call
F         G
I saw him down in the alley
Fm          G
Having had enough of it all


Chorus:
             C                       Am               Fm   G
Said you can do what you want to whenever you want to
        C                           Am                Fm   G
You can do what you want to there's no one to stop you


Verse 2:
G                                 C
All spit and spite, you're up all night
               Dm
And down every day
G
A tired man with only hours to go 
     C                    Dm
Just waiting to be taken away
G
Getting into the back of a car for 
C               Dm
Candy from some stranger
F            G                    Fm
Watching the parade with pinpoint eyes
        G
Full of smoldering anger


Chorus:
        C                       Am              Fm  G
You can do what you want to whenever you want to
        C                            Am                Fm  G
You can do what you want to, there's no one to stop you
            C                       Am
Now you can do what you want to whenever you want to
C                       Am
Do what you want to whenever you want to
F                       G
Do what you want to whenever you want to
C                        Dm
Though it doesn't mean a thing
F
Big Nothing
